Tips and Tricks

It is highly recommended to slice the zucchini with the help of a mandoline. This way, you will get slices all the same, ensuring even cooking. When assembling the roll with puff pastry, always use plastic wrap or parchment paper; it will make it easier to create a well-compacted and homogeneous roll. The order of the ingredients when assembling the roll is not important; you can easily create layers to your liking. Zucchini can be replaced with other vegetables such as eggplant. The choice of cheese is personal; the important thing is not to use very hard cheeses that would make it difficult to assemble the roll. Puff pastry can be easily found at the supermarket or, if you are more experienced, nothing beats homemade pastry.

Ingredients

Do a little research on the vegetables that will go into our roll. Use always fresh, organic seasonal vegetables. It is important to always choose seasonal vegetables both when going to the supermarket and to a small shop. We can find online many calendars that will show us the vegetables that are in season at that time.

How to Store the Roll

The roll can be safely stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. Freezing is not recommended at all. It is recommended to eat the roll warm; you can heat it in the oven or microwave.
